Jimmy S,
Ok, I have done everthin that you have asked me to do. In
fact the items that you wanted me to do, I do 95% of the
time. (I like to take care of my computer) Also I ran the
Memory test, and passed. And I saved your website to my
favorites because there is SO much info there that I can
use in the future. Also, I called Microsoft Support and
they helped me out VERY well. If I keep getting this
issue, they told me to call WinXP Support. They think
it's an WinXP issue. Thanks for all your help in the past
and in the present. Your a GREAT guy, Jimmy.
Greg.
